Right - because I'm still not sure any idea I've come up with will be a
truly general solution, and nobody's suggested anything better :)

Lower-casing everything might in theory work; if memory serves it's what
Class::DBI does - but ... hmm, hang on.

What if we simply assigned the column info return to a column of the exact
same name if available, or one that matches /^${name}$/i if not? Can anybody
see a downside to that?
